The Point, Cardiff, UK

 

The Point is a church-turned-popular music venue in Cardiff Bay, Cardiff, Wales.

The Point is situated in the old merchant's quarter of Mount Stuart Square, named after Lord Mountstuart, who represented Wales in Parliament during the Napoleonic period. The focal point of the square was a church that would later become The Point.

The current building was constructed in 1900 to replace a temporary iron frame church and opened as the chapel of St. Mary. In 1912, it became a separate parish church under the name of St. Stephen.

The church was deconsecrated in 1992 and used as a community centre and theatre until 2001, when it was purchased by its current owners. Tremendous renovations in 2003 transformed the church into a venue for live music performance. The entire building was restored and much of the original architecture was kept, including all of the stained glass windows. The Point is now equipped with a fully functional and permanent stage, lighting systems, in-house PA, and projection system.
